I just am posting this, because Trump sounded all positive about our trade situation with China, when he interviewed with Judge Jeanine.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3719474/posts#comment

I really do not see how anyone, can say that.

Even Trump.

Our trade deficit with China is the largest any country in the entire history of the WORLD, has ever had.

Ever.

The worse ever.

I am all for Trump. I have been for Trump (right here) since before he even announced as a candidate.

But seriously. China is taking huge advantage of America.

Every single administration for the last generation and a half, has been sold out.

Everyone.

Democrats. Republicans. Everyone.

Trump, stand up for America.

Someone needs to. Be the guy who does.

For real.

I am sure serious progress is being made:

China removed tariffs from 700 imports, barely 3 weeks ago. Give it time.

Who is this Antoinette Montgomery? And why is she such an expert on trade? I can’t find anything, I’m guessing graduated in the last 2 or 3 years?

President Trump needs to have the US government PREPARED to IMMEDIATELY IMPLEMENT BOTH HIGHER AND EXPANDED TARIFFS on Chinese products EFFECTIVE MARCH 1st.

No FURTHER delays, no more “warnings”, no months-long lead time to effectuate the changes. If this immediate action doesn’t happen, China will simply continue to drag things out and not make REAL changes that ACTUALLY IMPACT THE BALANCE OF TRADE.

Unfortunately, he doesn’t have a magic wand. Everyone has bent over backward for China for 30 years and they’ve been waiting for Trump to cave or just ignore what needs to be done like everyone else has.

Trump means he feels good about how the current talks are going. He knows your stats, that’s why he’s working on this.

Buck up and stop clutching your pearls.

It is very complicated. For example, a person who used to make vig getting cars into China from US around the tariff, is out of a job. But that is good. In fact, one person I know kinda like that, loves Trump. They making their scratch elsewhere now. But things are changing. The US economy and the US Government, likewise the Chinese counterparts, are like oil tankers. You have to starting turning real early. Lol.

“Eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-swing, batter!”

Nope. No strike. The Trump Administration is still negotiating in the Asian bazaar with cool calculation for the home run. ;-D

Oh, yes, the “wall.” Maybe we could get impatient and develop an American social wall against the southern countries and the East. How ‘bout them apples?

China was robbing us blind. Trump is putting an end to that and putting our trade on an even footing.

That is a tremendous success re: trade.

If they’re still talking, we’re good. Don’t forget the slumping Chinese economy overall, which is nothing new. China is getting top-heavy, with a military looking outward and spending like mad dogs instead of a government looking inward. The Trade will work out, and time will tell how the Chinese economy deals with quantum change as they deal with changes in NK while they shed the skin and privileges of ‘developing nation/emerging market’.

What I am seeing, is we just set the worst trade deficit in all recorded history, with China.

This is the result of increased economic growth in the United States since 2016 coupled with the outdated trade/tariff regime that the Trump administration inherited.

I'd also like to see the final numbers with the tariffs collected from China added back in before declaring 2018 as the 'worst ever'.
